How is it almost February already? I mean, it feels like this month was over in the blink of an eye. I’m always left feeling a little surprised and a little perplexed when we reach the end of the month; when did the days creep up on me so suddenly? What have I spent the last four weeks doing? Well, I know in part that I’ve spent the last month loving the above products. I’ve been changing up my beauty and skincare routine, and discovering a few new favourites along the way – some surprising, some not at all, and…
Charlotte Olympia panda flats January has been pretty quiet on the shopping front. No notable purchases; and actually, there’s really only one to speak of, these quirky velvet panda flats from Charlotte Olympia (I just couldn’t resist).
